Chapter 215 The Reward of Being the "World's Most Beautiful Woman"
The North district of New York has been lively lately, with many prominent figures from the surrounding cities coming over!
Most of them were invited by Mr. Parker to participate in the bidding and construction in the Bay Area. As for the families in New York who didn't receive an invitation letter, they started seeking cooperation with these prominent figures, hoping to get a share from the bidding in the Bay Area. The Wilson family was one of them.
After the newly established Munro company raised an additional four billion dollars, the purpose was to seize a piece of land in the Bay Area bidding.
One day, Munro called his three sons and one daughter to his study to discuss the matter of the invitation letter. For the Wilson family, this was currently the most important thing.
"There are only seven days left until the Bay Area bidding, and I still haven't received an invitation letter. If we don't find a way to get one soon, all our previous efforts might go to waste," Munro said with a furrowed brow, showing his deep concern.
For this Bay Area bidding, he even used his collection of antiques from years of accumulation as collateral for a bank loan.
"Only the billion-dollar companies receive invitation letters. We are far from that," Kevin said with a hint of discouragement.
"It's just an invitation letter. Let Noad handle it."
"Okay, recently he seemed to be very lucky. First, he received an additional $500 million investment, and then he secured a loan of $2 billion, which is something we couldn't achieve. He can probably handle things with just a few words," Benjamin said with a hint of ill intentions.
"Yeah, let Noad handle it! He can probably handle things that we can't," Megan sarcastically remarked.
In the past few days, Noad's impressive performance made them somewhat jealous, especially since he now holds the largest stake in the new company, reaching 30%. This made them even more eager to find an opportunity to suppress Noad.
The people in the study all focused their gaze on Noad, causing him to frown and secretly sigh at their intentions to elevate and then bring him down.
"It's just luck on my part. This invitation came from Mr. Parker. I don't have any other good solution," Noad said.
This time, Noad didn't dare to step forward. Firstly, his siblings harbored jealousy towards him, and if he pushed too hard, they might join forces to suppress him. Secondly, as the invitation came from Mr. Parker, he genuinely had no way to obtain it.
"Even securing a $2 billion loan just by saying you can do it," Kevin couldn't help but mock. Because Noad holds more shares than him, despite being the eldest, it was quite irritating to have fewer shares than someone who had only recently become a father.
"Yeah, Noad, you can definitely do it this time," Benjamin chimed in again.
Everyone pushed this difficult task onto Noad, wanting to "enjoy" the show, even Munro's gaze landed on Noad.
"Noad, can you find a way to obtain this invitation? It's related to the future of the Wilson family," Master Munro asked.
When the Master asked, Noad couldn't remain silent, but he wasn't foolish either and replied, "If this new company wants to develop, it's not possible to rely solely on me. We should all work together to find a solution. Our chances are greater if we collectively make an effort."
This statement pleased his siblings while also sharing the task of finding the invitation with them.
"Noad makes a good point! Working together to find a solution is the right way to go. If the Wilson family wants to become a top-tier dynasty in New York, it will require all of your concerted efforts," Master Munro agreed with Noad's words.
This made the others feel awkward. They initially planned to trick Noad, but unexpectedly, he didn't fall for it.
"Whoever can get their hands on the invitation for the Bay Area investment bidding will be the CEO of this new company. What do you all think?" Munro could only use this method to create a contest.
Anybody capable of obtaining the invitation, both in terms of ability and connections, would undoubtedly be a standout candidate for the position of the new company's CEO.
"Then let's decide on that!" Everyone nodded and felt a burst of determination in their hearts.
Once they took up the position of CEO, they would have control over the new company and would never give up on it.
After the discussion, everyone went back.
At this moment, William was training martial arts at Ring Villa. There was nothing major happening these days, so he had been training in martial arts and strength exercises. In just a few days, William felt that his strength had improved.
"I can go to the newly built Jujitsu Gym for some real combat next time." William had just received a message from Hunter. The Jujitsu Gym was almost ready, which made him eager to try it out in real combat.
Just as William finished his move, his phone suddenly rang.
Wiping the sweat off his forehead, William answered the call. It was Michelle inviting him to dinner at her place.
"Alright, I'll be right there." Thinking of Michelle, William couldn't help but smile. He hadn't seen her for several days and realized that he missed her quite a bit.
Soon, William arrived at Michelle's house. As he pushed open the villa door, Michelle, hidden behind it, covered his eyes with her soft, fair hands and playfully said, "Guess who I am?"
"The most beautiful woman in the world." William smiled and replied. He naturally knew who was covering his eyes.
"Correct! Here's your reward." Michelle happily kissed William's face, causing a slight curl of his lips. When did this girl learn to play like this?
Noad also smiled and welcomed him. However, when William saw that smile on his face, he knew that Noad had called him over for dinner for some reason.
Sure enough, after Noad chased Michelle away to the kitchen, he took William aside and said, "William, I need your help again!"
"What's the matter this time?" William felt like he was becoming Noad's god, being called for dinner whenever he encountered a difficult situation.
"The auction in Bay Area is about to start, and the Wilson family hasn't sent me an invitation. Can you get me one?" Noad didn't beat around the bush.
"I'll have someone deliver one to you tomorrow." William thought that with Antony's current influence and status in New York, obtaining an invitation for the Wilson family would be a piece of cake, especially considering his close relationship with Mr. Parker.
"That would be fantastic! I won't let you down either. As we agreed last time, I'll increase your shareholding to 20% as a thank you. Once the company stabilizes, I'll transfer it to you." Noad also knew how to repay favors.
